Cincinnati Bengals Draft 2018

Cincinnati had a huge void at center, and it became the offensive line priority after the team traded for left tackle Cordy Glenn. The Bengals were smart to stay in state and stick with that plan even after Ragnow was selected one pick earlier. Price overcomes a Combine injury to be selected in a sport worthy of this talent.

Bates can do a lot of little things well in coverage and run support. Although he doesn't stand out in any one era, he’s versatile enough to start at either safety spot when needed in time, helping on special teams and subpackages until then.

The Bengals take their second Buckeye, this time for the edge of their defensive line instead of the middle of their offensive line (center Billy Price in Round 1). Hubbard slipped a little because he has a limited ceiling as a pass-rusher, but he can become a well-rounded starter for his hometown team.

The Bengals go defense with back-to-back picks. They signed Preston Brown in free agency to man the middle, but they needed more coverage ability and athleticism outside behind Vontaze Burfict and Nick Vigil. Jefferson will play situationally and on special teams at first.
